Jehovah redeemeth the soul of His servants, And none trusting in Him are desolate!

By David. Strive, Jehovah, with my strivers, fight with my fighters,

They are as chaff before wind, And a messenger of Jehovah driving away.

Their way is darkness and slipperiness, And a messenger of Jehovah their pursuer.

And my soul is joyful in Jehovah, It rejoiceth in His salvation.

All my bones say, 'Jehovah, who is like Thee, Delivering the poor from the stronger than he, And the poor and needy from his plunderer.'

Thou hast seen, O Jehovah, Be not silent, O Lord -- be not far from me,

Judge me according to Thy righteousness, O Jehovah my God, And they do not rejoice over me.

They sing and rejoice, who are desiring my righteousness, And they say continually, 'Jehovah is magnified, Who is desiring the peace of His servant.'

To the Overseer. -- By a servant of Jehovah, by David. The transgression of the wicked Is affirming within my heart, 'Fear of God is not before his eyes,

O Jehovah, in the heavens is Thy kindness, Thy faithfulness is unto the clouds.

Thy righteousness is as mountains of God, Thy judgments are a great deep. Man and beast Thou savest, O Jehovah.

Trust in Jehovah, and do good, Dwell in the land, and enjoy faithfulness,

And delight thyself on Jehovah, And He giveth to thee the petitions of thy heart.

Roll on Jehovah thy way, And trust upon Him, and He worketh,

Be silent for Jehovah, and stay thyself for Him, Do not fret because of him Who is making prosperous his way, Because of a man doing wicked devices.

For evil doers are cut off, As to those waiting on Jehovah, they possess the land.

For the arms of the wicked are shivered, And Jehovah is sustaining the righteous.

Jehovah knoweth the days of the perfect, And their inheritance is -- to the age.

But the wicked perish, and the enemies of Jehovah, As the preciousness of lambs, Have been consumed, In smoke they have been consumed.

From Jehovah are the steps of a man, They have been prepared, And his way he desireth.

When he falleth, he is not cast down, For Jehovah is sustaining his hand.

For Jehovah is loving judgment, And He doth not forsake His saintly ones, To the age they have been kept, And the seed of the wicked is cut off.

Jehovah doth not leave him in his hand, Nor condemn him in his being judged.

Look unto Jehovah, and keep His way, And He doth exalt thee to possess the land, In the wicked being cut off -- thou seest!

And the salvation of the righteous is from Jehovah, Their strong place in a time of adversity.

And Jehovah doth help them and deliver them, He delivereth them from the wicked, And saveth them, Because they trusted in Him!

A Psalm of David, 'To cause to remember.' Jehovah, in Thy wrath reprove me not, Nor in Thy fury chastise me.

Because for Thee, O Jehovah, I have waited, Thou dost answer, O Lord my God.

Do not forsake me, O Jehovah, My God, be not far from me,

Cause me to know, O Jehovah, mine end, And the measure of my days -- what it is,' I know how frail I am.

Hear my prayer, O Jehovah, And to my cry give ear, Unto my tear be not silent, For a sojourner I am with Thee, A settler like all my fathers.

O the happiness of the man Who hath made Jehovah his trust, And hath not turned unto the proud, And those turning aside to lies.

Much hast Thou done, Jehovah my God; Thy wonders and Thy thoughts toward us, There is none to arrange unto Thee, I declare and speak: They have been more than to be numbered.

I have proclaimed tidings of righteousness In the great assembly, lo, my lips I restrain not, O Jehovah, Thou hast known.

Thou, O Jehovah, restrainest not Thy mercies from me, Thy kindness and Thy truth do continually keep me.

Be pleased, O Jehovah, to deliver me, O Jehovah, for my help make haste.

All seeking Thee rejoice and are glad in Thee, Those loving Thy salvation say continually, 'Jehovah is magnified.'

To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. O the happiness of him Who is acting wisely unto the poor, In a day of evil doth Jehovah deliver him.

Jehovah doth preserve him and revive him, He is happy in the land, And Thou givest him not into the will of his enemies.

Jehovah supporteth on a couch of sickness, All his bed Thou hast turned in his weakness.

I -- I said, 'O Jehovah, favour me, Heal my soul, for I did sin against Thee,'

And Thou, Jehovah, favour me, And cause me to rise, And I give recompence to them.

Blessed is Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age -- and unto the age. Amen and Amen.

With a free will-offering I sacrifice to Thee, I thank Thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good,

I -- to God I call, and Jehovah saveth me.

Cast on Jehovah that which He hath given thee, And He doth sustain thee, He doth not suffer for ever the moving of the righteous.

In God I praise the word, In Jehovah I praise the word.

O God, break their teeth in their mouth, The jaw-teeth of young lions break down, O Jehovah.

For, lo, they laid wait for my soul, Assembled against me are strong ones, Not my transgression nor my sin, O Jehovah.

And Thou, Jehovah, God of Hosts, God of Israel, Awake to inspect all the nations. Favour not any treacherous dealers of iniquity. Selah.

And Thou, O Jehovah dost laugh at them, Thou dost mock at all the nations.

The righteous doth rejoice in Jehovah, And hath trusted in Him, And boast themselves do all the upright of heart!

Why do ye envy, O high hills, The hill God hath desired for His seat? Jehovah also doth tabernacle for ever.

God Himself is to us a God for deliverances, And Jehovah Lord hath the outgoings of death.

Let not those waiting on Thee be ashamed because of me, O Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, Let not those seeking Thee Blush because of me, O God of Israel.

And I -- my prayer is to Thee, O Jehovah, A time of good pleasure, O God, In the abundance of Thy kindness, Answer me in the truth of Thy salvation.

Answer me, O Jehovah, for good is Thy kindness, According to the abundance Of Thy mercies turn Thou unto me,

And it is better to Jehovah than an ox, A bullock -- horned -- hoofed.

For Jehovah hearkeneth unto the needy, And His bound ones He hath not despised.

To the Overseer, by David. -- 'To cause to remember.' O God, to deliver me, O Jehovah, for my help, haste.

And I am poor and needy, O God, haste to me, My help and my deliverer art Thou, O Jehovah, tarry Thou not!

In Thee, O Jehovah, I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed to the age.

For Thou art my hope, O Lord Jehovah, My trust from my youth.

I come in the might of the Lord Jehovah, I mention Thy righteousness -- Thine only.

Blessed is Jehovah God, God of Israel, He alone is doing wonders,

And I -- nearness of God to me is good, I have placed in the Lord Jehovah my refuge, To recount all Thy works!

For a cup is in the hand of Jehovah, And the wine hath foamed, It is full of mixture, and He poureth out of it, Only its dregs wring out, and drink, Do all the wicked of the earth,

Vow and complete to Jehovah your God, All ye surrounding him. They bring presents to the Fearful One.

We do not hide from their sons, To a later generation recounting praises of Jehovah, And His strength, and His wonders that He hath done.

Therefore hath Jehovah heard, And He sheweth Himself wroth, And fire hath been kindled against Jacob, And anger also hath gone up against Israel,

Till when, O Jehovah? art Thou angry for ever? Thy jealousy doth burn as fire.

Jehovah, God of Hosts, till when? Thou hast burned against the prayer of Thy people.

O Jehovah, God of Hosts, turn us back, Cause Thy face to shine, and we are saved!

I am Jehovah thy God, Who bringeth thee up out of the land of Egypt. Enlarge thy mouth, and I fill it.

(Even a sparrow hath found a house, And a swallow a nest for herself, Where she hath placed her brood,) Thine altars, O Jehovah of Hosts, My king and my God.

O Jehovah, God of Hosts, hear my prayer, Give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah.
